Biannual input lag conclusion

Everything about latency. This section is mainly user/consumer discussion. (Peer-reviewed scientific discussion should go in Laboratory section). Tips, mouse lag, display lag, game engine lag, network lag, whole input lag chain, VSYNC OFF vs VSYNC ON, and more! Input Lag Articles on Blur Busters.

Did you try fisting it?
yeah, one time, pci slot was dead.
23H2 will never stop loving you. For now at least.
do you mean for you 23h2 > 24/25?
25H2 is really good, but for some AMD GPUs it causes fullscreen games to flicker and crash. 23H2 is still the most stable and has lower latency than every previous build in the last 5 years. On 24H2 I always had some input lag but 23H2 is perfect. It should be superior on NVIDIA as well.

Windows 11 will always have more input lag but there are changes exclusive to it, like this: https://x.com/sixtyvividtails/status/18 ... 5917509800

Okay, so now it's been a day since I tested which one of these system breaking scripts could run on Windows 11 and the results look promising. Previously these were used for Windows 10 1803 and 22H2 but I didn't have a mouse that could be used at 26050 DPI and 8000 Hz. There is no inconsistency in my gameplay now, everything is pretty much static in the OS and latency feels greatly reduced, most probably thanks to the minimal process count, even though people state it doesn't make a difference. So if anyone wants to make another desperate attempt at fixing their issues, these could be tried on a throwaway install: https://github.com/Hyyote/files-/tree/main/tweaks/A1
